so, this is not a change in policy in any way. there is no policy that i'm aware of that's in writing. if there was a general practice, that's a different type of circumstance. but given the testimony by the appellant's attorney, i would also allow for a briefing, given that no brief was submitted because there was a misunderstanding that we had a practice, long-standing practice of doing a stay, of allowing for a stay under these types of circumstances. i don't know if that would -- and for that -- i would move to continue and allow the appellant's attorney to file a brief at the point, if it comes back to us. >> okay. so, a couple questions. one is the date to which you want to continue it and the other is do you want to allow the permit holder an opportunity to submit a response to whatever the appellant submits? >> that would normally be the case. >> because there would be an opportunity -- yes, i would allow for the briefing if that was so requested. >> timing wise, what would you suggest? >> sounds like they're going to ask

changing from being a gang member to a former gang member involves a change in identity. this is a tricky process. it is slow and steady, and there is frustration. the gang is replaced with drugs, and there are fallbacks. relapses, connections, there are struggles. this is where collaboration needs to take hold. it has now become a cliche, to say that we cannot rest on our way out of this problem. i no longer want to hear those words. this is not to give the law- enforcement a short shrift. i have had an impact on my husband's life, some of the unwanted. but he has had an impact on mind. i have done extensive work with law enforcement, with the lapd and the los angeles county sheriff's. i am here to tell you that crime has been driven down in los angeles because of their efforts, but not only because of their efforts. so what does the collaboration look like. i want you to keep some ideas in mind. there is no first among equals. what we learned in los angeles was that oppression alone was not the answer. it did not work. there were record highs in gang violence in 2005. i
